The Boutique hotel la Posada del Conde is located between the Conde del Guadalhorce and Guadalteba Reservoirs in the Desfiladero de los Gaitanes natural park. It offers 24 spacious double rooms (and 1 suite) with huge beds.
This hotel is very busy due to its proximity to the start point of the Caminito del Rey. Very often it is unavailable at Booking.com See alternative places to stay near the Caminito del Rey here.
The Guadalhorce and Guadalteba reservoirs form a spectacular lake system just above El Chorro and close to the Caminito del Rey in Málaga province. The turquoise water, pine-covered hills, dramatic cliffs and historic dams make this a worthwhile place to explore in its own right, rather than simply somewhere you pass on the way to the Caminito.
The reservoir system is made up of three interconnected reservoirs: Conde de Guadalhorce, Guadalhorce and Guadalteba. Around the lakes you can find viewpoints, historic sites, walking routes and places to stop and enjoy the scenery, while the surrounding cliffs are also an important area for climbing and wildlife.
The three Reservoirs are nestled in a stunning area of outstanding beauty close to El Chorro and the Caminito del Rey and within the boundaries of the Natural Park area called “Desfiladero de los Gaitanes“.
Probably my favorite place to eat in the area of El Chorro, the Camino del Rey and Guadalhorce reservoirs, the Meson del Conde is situated just a hundred metres from the Dam of the Guadalhorce reservoir. There is ample parking and the service and quality of food is exceptional.
Situated right on the banks of the Conde de Guadalhorce reservoir and just a few kilometers from El Chorro, this once tiny bar (kiosko) serving drinks in the 1950’s is now an enormous bar restaurant with a capacity for over 400 people eating at the same time.
This bar restaurant is also an important navigation point as it is right next to the tunnel leading to the entry point for the Caminito del Rey
There are fantastic views of the surrounding scenery and just opposite access down to the lake. you are only a a five minute walk taking you to the reservoir dam and past the kings chair cut from Stone.
The dolmens of Antequera are a group of three megalithic structures located near the town of Antequera in the province of Malaga, Spain. The dolmens, which date back to the Neolithic period, were constructed between 3000 and 2500 BC and were used for burial purposes.
